JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What was done to your JK this week?

Bought a rampage trail cover. It is advertised as waterproof, box says weatherproof and test shows it leaks.

Thanks for posting this. I was going to get one. I think I am just going to find a complete cover and not worry about only covering part of the Jeep. It will take up more space to store, but I think I would be better off.

I just want something I can put on the Jeep overnight when I don't want to put the windows/doors/top back on to keep the morning dew off the dash and seats.

Installed Rampage locking hood catches and a steering stabilizer relocation bracket that I had to use some redneck ingenuity on! Took her out today for some mud and a little bumpy ride. Next week will be spent pulling the woods from the inside and I might even clean the outside.

Finally got it done! It's been awhile coming, but I love how it came out! Have to get used to the ride, not like stock anymore, but it seems to handle better. The wheels are every bit as cool as I thought they would be and the tires are awesome! Great recommendations on this board for the Duratracs and they have exceeded my expectations! Smoother and quieter than the BFG's that were on before. It's like a whole new Jeep!

No problem, after testing this I would wouldn't recommend it. For the price rain gear is a much better product. I will be testing a bestop later this week with the help of a coworker. From his pictures they appear to be the exact same product.

My daughter has the Bestop and it is made of their actual softop material. We've yet to have a leak with it. It rains all to often here and we've had great results.

Only downside is its a bit bulky and heavy.

No I'm the same way! I have enjoyed the last 24 hours of having a manly horn!

I've had the rampage and besttop cover and both leak, but it keeps the majority of stuff out in weather. Both also said waterproof.....
